Description

Sail south from Keauhou Bay on the Hoku Nui, Sea Paradise's 50-foot luxury sailing catamaran, to world-famous Captain Cook Monument in Kealakekua Bay Marine Life Conservation District— 315 acres protected since 1969, 60–80 foot visibility, and some of the most abundant marine life on the Kona Coast.

Sea Paradise has sailed to Kealakekua Bay since 1985 — one of the original operators at this site. Marine naturalist crew run a full reef briefing before every snorkel. What you may see: Spinner dolphins at the bay entrance, spotted eagle rays, Moorish idols, yellow tang, humuhumunukunukuapuaʻa (Hawaii's state fish), Hawaiian green sea turtles (honu), and moray eels throughout the reef.

When sea conditions permit, the tour continues to Red Hill — a volcanic headland north of
Kealakekua Bay featuring unique underwater lava arches and lava tubes at snorkeling depth. Accessible by vessel. Two spectacular snorkel sites - one exceptional Kona tour experience. Continental breakfast is served on the outbound sail. Deli-style buffet lunch is served on the return. Departs Keauhou Bay, end of Kaleiopapa Street, Kailua-Kona.
